one or two other concerns on my plate yet today; but barring problems and given energy, this is on top of my list to check out now. My version, though, is 8.51.0.86. I only now realized that the below-mentioned 8.51.0.6 was probably not a different version but just a missing 8. :-)

Re: Skype 8.51, split view and JAWS scripts
Jerry Pryde
I was looking at the options with that version of Skype. I found one that said Skype in compact view swiched off.
For me, I don't get multiple
conversations anyway, so it's not a priority.
It's just one of those things I'll
figure out when I need it.
Just my opinion based on experince,

Skype 8.51, split view and JAWS scripts
Marius Swart <nightowl69@...>
Hi Doug and list. After updating to Skype 8.51.0.6, and modifying the ConfigNames.ini file according to your instructions (I’m using JAWS 2019 June release), and enabling split view mode, here’s what I found.
The scripts work properly in the Skype main window, but when split view mode is enabled, the scripts do not work in the separate chat window. After disabling split view mode, I found that the scripts worked properly in both the Skype main window and an active chat.
I’m not expecting you to come up with a workaround, I’m just reporting in case anyone hasn’t noticed yet.

Re: split view

Split view means that every chat shows to another window. This feature was very much popular in classic Skype which was retired by Microsoft in November 2018. It has no relationship with any of screen reader. This feature is Skype’s own feature. With regards from Inamuddin with the Skype ID: Charlsdarwin1

In the wake of recent discussions, I thought some might be interested in this article sent to another list.
Skype Desktop App Receives Back Split View As you may already know, Microsoft is about to retire the classic Skype app in November 2018. One of its most popular features, Split View, is finally coming to the latest Skype Desktop. The new Skype Desktop app has a very streamlined user interface. It follows the modern trend of flat minimalist design with glyph icons and no borders anywhere. This design is being used in all other Microsoft products. It is an Electron-based application. Split View is a special mode of the app that allows having each conversation in a separate window, rather than showing them all in a single window merged with the contact panel. The Split View feature is available in Skype Desktop starting with Insider Preview version 8.51.76.74.
As of this writing, this feature is exclusively available to the Skype App Preview program users. To try the feature, you need to click on the menu button with three dots ("...") and then select "Enable Split View mode" from the menu. After that, the main window will display your contacts only. Double-click on any contact to open a new conversation in a new window. To restore the default appearance, use the Open recent chats button available in the top left corner of any chat window. Also, the Split View feature can be disabled in the main menu ("..."). This new mode should be welcomed by users of the classic Skype app. Microsoft is actively working to move users from Skype 7 to the modern Skype 8.

Skype Desktop App Receives Back Split View
Hi,
Given the discussion about this, I thought you guys might be interested on reading the article below from Winaero, coming just in time :) Skype Desktop App Receives Back Split View As you may already know, Microsoft is about to retire the classic Skype app in November 2018. One of its most popular features, Split View, is finally coming to the latest Skype Desktop. Skype Desktop joins the Store app, which has received the same feature in October 2018. The new Skype Desktop app has a very streamlined user interface. It follows the modern trend of flat minimalist design with glyph icons and no borders anywhere. This design is being used in all other Microsoft products. It is an Electron-based application. Split View is a special mode of the app that allows having each conversation in a separate window, rather than showing them all in a single window merged with the contact panel. The Split View feature is available in Skype Desktop starting with Insider Preview version 8.51.76.74.
